Meal Plan Saturday 12th November 2016

Meal planning was a little better this week, maybe because the week was a little less hectic than it had been.

All we want is warming winter meals

Saturday - Pirri Pirri chicken with red peppers, red onions served with chips and salad. Boys will have fish fingers and mash

Sunday - Toad in the Hole using sausages from the village farm shop. Served with lots of veggies and some roast potatoes.

Monday - I am trying the boys on satay chicken again but major changes. One I am not cooking the sauce it's being brought. Secondly rice not noodles. Lots of veggies. The sauce will be on the side for the boys.

Tuesday - Soup lentil, carrot slightly spiced served with rolls

Wednesday - Gnuddi with tomato sauce. I watched these being made in a programme on Good Food and they looked lovely.

Thursday - Jackets with Tina Mayo and salad

Friday - Homemade beef burger with chips and salad

Mint is trying to take over the garden

Instead I am tidying and keeping busy, let's be honest the garden is a weed haven and a total mess so I have a lot to do. Clearing this border however I have made a very important discovery. That mint is trying to take over the world, one border at a time. Two years ago I planted out a very sad and mainly dead supermarket mint plant. I did not think it was going to survive or the consequences of my naive action. It did survive and it did grow and grow. I then cleared the border down that year and the next it came back stronger. This year it was at its finest. Now admittedly I did just let it grow. The children loved the smell as did I. They were picking it, making mud pies with it, it was a source of fun.
